Complete the sentences based on your reading of this excerpt from "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift:

For first, as I have already observed, it would greatly lessen the number of Papists, with whom we are yearly over-run, being the principal breeders of the nation, as well as our most dangerous enemies, and who stay at home on purpose with a design to deliver the kingdom to the Pretender, hoping to take their advantage by the absence of so many good Protestants, who have chosen rather to leave their country, than stay at home and pay tithes against their conscience to an episcopal curate.

1.The "principal breeders" of the nation refer to.

(nonworking population,the catholic population in poverty,young men and women in poverty,foreigners living in ireland)

2.In the last line, the writer talks about the "good Protestants" to .

(mock the protestants for paying tithes(compulsory donations),criticize the growing influence of the catholic population,highlight the sufferings of Irish protestants,criticized protestants who abandoned their country)

The correct answers are:

1.The "principal breeders" of the nation refer to the catholic population in poverty.

2.In the last line, the writer talks about the "good Protestants" to criticize the growing influence of the catholic population.

Explanation:

The main breeders of the nation refers to Catholic people. This we can notice since he calls them "Papists". In other words, these people have the Pope as their leader, and the religion that follows this description is Catholic. There is a great belief that Catholic people have many children, that is why the author calls them breeders.

Regarding good protestants, the author criticizes the growing influence of the Catholic population. He complains that Protestants have left their country instead of supporting an Episcopal priest.
